A: Hi,

Thanks for your question. Yes, Paperguide AI Search feature is similar to Consensus and can replace Consensus. However, consensus has some advanced features such as Filters, Consensus Score etc which Paperguide does not have at this point of time. But we are planning similar features in the next few updates.
